Incineration of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-contaminated soils was successfully completed at the Rose Township Demode Road Superfund site in Michigan. The incineration project was part of an ongoing multiphase remedial effort conducted by potentially responsible parties (PRPS) and their consultants. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and PRC Environmental Management, Inc., as contractor to EPA, maintained an oversight role throughout the incineration. This paper discusses the technical aspects of the incineration from beginning to project completion, including excavation activities, emissions testing, incinerator performance, operating problems, ash characteristics, and field and laboratory testing for cleanup standard verification.
